From Forums4fans.com Buffy The Vampire SlayerBuffy 7x22 Chosen - Location Shoot ReportMonday 24 March 2003, by Webmaster Unfortunately I arrived at 3:30. Security guard told me they started filming at 6 am. My contactor called me confirming they were indeed filming at the Buffy house. As I arrived, there were tons of security, and only three other Buffy fans waiting happily. I got to know them, found out two of them are professional at stalking the crew, I wish i knew. Anyways, we started to talk, and all of a sudden I heard one of them say "Hey look there goes James Marsters!" I turned around and saw that James was only ten feet away driving in his car, and he was parking right next to us. He got out of his car, and my sister and I screamed for him. He said hi. One of the girls screamed, and cried, and i mean she cried alot. As our nerves calmed down, the God himself walked by, Joss. I asked him nicely a couple of questions and here it goes DMT: What episode are you filming at this moment? JW: I’m only here to film a segment for episode 22. DMT: So it’s already the end? JW: It sure is. DMT: Who is on the role sheet? JW: Sarah, James, Nick, and Michelle. DMT: I cried in the Gift. Will the finale make me cry. JW: Of course. DMT: You have to have a spinoff about Willow and Kennedy. I just love them! What is up with Kennedy being so mean, I’m starting to hate her. JW: Well I love her. She’s just a strong character, you’ll have to get use to her. Sorry. DMT: Can I have your autograph, and take a picture with you? JW: Sure. Basically thats how it went. I know i asked him more questions. I talked to him about twenty minutes or so. BTW he is the nicest guy in the world, he loves torturing us fans. Okie, so after my heart went back to it’s normal beat, James comes out and we all went after him,to seek his autograph. He acts nothing like he is on the show, he’s nice, and just laid back. Unfortunately I didn’t get to take a picture since he told the other fans he couldn’t take pictures, and he’s pretty loyal, so thats great. He went to film his scene, and then went back to his trailor. Okie, Nicholas Brendan is the nicest guy in the world! I talked to him for ten minutes, and he’s just the greatest. He told me he was driving to San Diego, and I told him wow it’s so late right now. He said he has no choice. We took a picture, and I got his autograph. He’s just the nicest! I talked to Michelle for ten minutes, she’s really really nice as well. I wanted to talk to Sarah, but I couldn’t since she had to change, and she just seemed a little annoyed by something, I just couldn’t figure it out. I figure it’s because she had an emotional scene, so she really had to get in the mood for it. But she is nice, I poped my head in front of the car, and waved to her, and she waved back. She saw me fall to the floor with excitement, she laughed and smiled. Heres the description of the scenes they filmed. Episode 22: Buffy is on the porch, looking at the moon. She grabs a latern on the porch, and walks back in the house. They shot this about seven times, different angles, and Joss is a perfectionist. Episode 20-22: Buffy is walking outside the house, and there is trash and furniture everywhere in the front. She’s crying, and walking down the street. They filmed this about five times. Spike’s scene was real short. He just walks out the house and slams the door. They shot this about five times. Xander and Dawn’s kidnapping scene. Here is how the dialogue went. Camera zooms into the car, where Dawn and Xander are looking for some weapons. Dawn: I’m telling you Xander, I can’t find my cross bow in here. Xander: (can’t here xander) (Xander gets out of the car =) Xander: You know the worst thing is, it’s all fun and games until someone looses an eye.I guess you’re all done Xander! Dawn: Thats not really funny. Xander: Thats not the point. It’s a joke. Its like someone saying I’m the cyclopes. Dawn: Oh yeah that is funny. (laughs hysterically, and gets out of the car) No it’s not! Xander: (can’t here) Dawn: I just think everyone is uneasy around you because of what... (Xander puts a hankerchief over her mouth that makes her faint. Xander slams the door and drives off) That was basically all they shot. Hoped you guys are as excited as I am about the final episodes. I CAN’T WAIT! |
